Chapter 561: Three Hours of Rest
The tragic battle at the head of the city continued, and the frequency of the Tang army pouring fire oil and firing rockets was also getting faster and faster, from most of the first day to almost once in one or two hours, although Wen Qing scraped all the grease in the entire city, although the old and young in the city also tried their best to go to the city and fight with the soldiers, although every Tang army sergeant died with a soldier, but the balance of victory and defeat still couldn't stop tilting in the direction of the Jurchens, after all, their strength advantage was too strong.
Wanyan Zonghan watched the dense soldiers climb up to the city like ants in the rear, and couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart, raising his horsewhip and howling viciously, "Kill, kill a certain family, kill all the Nanban to a certain family, from today onwards, let those Nanban tremble when they hear my name Yan Zonghan, and they tremble, hahaha........."
"We were careless, we didn't expect this dog to use such means, it seems that we can't wait for the moment when reinforcements arrive!" Feeling that the offensive of the soldiers was higher and higher, and the intensity was stronger than a wave, Xu Jing and Li Congji swept a trace of haze in their hearts at the same time, and at the same time roared, regardless of their already seriously injured bodies, with the few sergeants under them, they resolutely fought with the soldiers.
Whether it was Xu Jing and Li Congji, who fought in blood, or Wanyan Zonghan, who was watching the battle in the rear, they didn't expect that the reinforcements of the Tang army had actually arrived a long time ago, not only had they arrived a long time ago, but they had arrived on the first day that the soldiers began to attack the city.
Although Wan Yan Zonghan is a murderous and temperamental person, he still will not forget the most basic common sense, on the day the siege began, there were countless scouts, and even he forgot about them, according to common sense, so many scouts should have been able to report the matter to Yan Zonghan when the Tang army first appeared, but none of them were able to do it, that was because in this reinforcement of the Tang army, There is a strong bow blocking team that gathers all the sharpshooters of the Tang Army to build with all their efforts.
Under the blows of these cutting-edge archers, it was easy to clear out a large area of controllable garrison accommodation, although their clean-up operation went extremely smoothly, but some of the generals of the reinforcements were very unimpressed, especially generals such as Hu Yanzhuo and Suo Chao.
Although Suo Chao was only a card army of the Daimyo Mansion that day, he was a veritable third good player in the Daimyo Mansion, only under Lu Junyi and Wen Da, I thought that after going to Liangshan, even if his skills were not as good as Lin Chong and other figures, he could be regarded as a master, but the reality was very cruel, and soon he sadly found that his proud kung fu was even Yang Zaixing, a few small characters could not be defeated, watching Yang Zaixing and others keep fighting in the north and south, he had indescribable envy in his heart, but his skills were not as good as others, What can it be, it can only be to step up hard training, exercise skills, this time finally got a chance to go out, he cherished it doubly, because on the day he first arrived, he couldn't wait to apply to the main general Guan Sheng to fight.
Seeing that Suo Chao was one step ahead, Hu Yanzhuo scolded in his heart, but he was also unwilling to lag behind and asked to fight, compared to Suo Chao's blind fight for the war, Hu Yanzhuo's heart obviously had some other thoughts.
After all, when he entered Liangshan, Li Junchen promised that one day he would let him rebuild Huyan's team, and in the future, Li Junchen did fulfill his promise, not only did Huyanzhuo rebuild the team, but the scale was far better than in the past.
Hu Yanzhuo, who does not have a chain horse team in hand, although he still has the courage of ten thousand people, but he always feels that something is missing, because he has always been very low-key, but now his chain horse team has been refined, which makes his heart that is unwilling to be left behind sprout again, and Li Junchen also wants to test the combat strength of the chain horse team, so he let him take the chain horse team to Ruzhou with Guan Sheng.
With these two people taking the lead, the rest of the generals also asked for battle, thinking that Guan Sheng would immediately agree to their invitation, but he didn't want Guan Sheng to caress his long beard and think for a while, and categorically rejected their invitation.
This refusal is like stabbing a hornet's nest, so that Hu Yanzhuo, Suo Chao and others can't accept it no matter what, and they all want Guan Sheng to give them an explanation, why they are not allowed to fight.
When Guan Sheng heard this, Danfeng's eyes suddenly opened, and two stunning rays of light shot out from them, which shocked the generals and subconsciously took a step back, "Not allowed today, if you want to fight, you will talk about it in three days!" With that, he closed his eyes again.
Hu Yanzhuo, Suo Chao and others were not angry, and they ignored him and led the troops on their own, but when they read the profound and strict military law of the Tang Dynasty, they couldn't help but hesitate.
Although three days is not a very long time, but for Hu Yanzhuo, Suo Chao and others is like a year, especially these generals also wore the clothes of Jurchen detectives, went to Ruzhou to investigate, when they saw the defenders of the city defending Ruzhou at all costs, they really hated to immediately wave the army to kill, and rescue Ruzhou and the defenders from the siege of the soldiers.
However, the Tang army's strict military discipline made them dare not take a step beyond Lei Chi at all, so they could only glance in the direction of Ruzhou with hatred, and secretly swore in their hearts that they would kill all these soldiers after three days.
When the first rays of sunlight appeared on the horizon again in the early morning of the third day, in the direction of five miles southwest of Ruzhou, Suo Chao, Hu Yanzhuo and others had already prepared their soldiers and horses, and their eyes were all focused on Guan Sheng's body, waiting for his order.
But for some reason, Guan Sheng, who was holding a green dragon knife and sitting on a red rabbit horse, kept his eyes closed, and he didn't have the slightest intention of using soldiers, and the generals' hearts couldn't help but be worried, and they didn't know what medicine was being sold in Guan Sheng's gourd.
"Da Da..." A rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded, Xuanzan galloped back, hugged his fist according to Guan Sheng, and said: "General Guan, that Jurchen has attacked the city many times, but it has still been defeated by the defenders......"
"Don't talk about these things, if Xu Jing and Li Congji don't even have this ability, wouldn't it mean that King Tang has no real knowledge?" Guan Sheng slowly opened his eyes and reached out to stroke his long beard, "Let me ask you, how long can this Confucian City last?" ”
"This ......" Xuanzan's face obviously showed a hesitant look, and he muttered for a long time before he said in an uncertain tone, "According to the end, probably ...... Possible...... I can only last an hour......"
"An hour?" Guan Sheng smiled coldly, and waved the green dragon knife in his hand, "The generals will listen to the order!" ”
"It's coming!" When Suo Chao, Hu Yanzhuo and other generals heard these words, they were all shocked, and they all clasped their fists and shouted, "The last general, please give the general an order!" ”
"Please give the general an order!"
"Please give the general an order!"
Mo said that it was these generals, and even the sergeants behind him also replied in unison, and the sound was so loud that the whole ground was also shocked.
"Good!" Guan Sheng nodded with satisfaction, "The whole army dismounts and rests for three hours!" ”
"Hugh...... Rest ......"
